I wrote this article for a blog in another space as it is a topic of discussion. I thought I would share this here as the feed back is always awesome in this forum. And ladies are present too. Have a look and tell me how much truth you feel is in this
Sending text messages to women after getting her number.
24/02/14



Many guys get mobile numbers from a girl after meeting a girl. Whether is is a pick up or a working lady. Some are more successful than others. But what happens after that? Most guys think that their mission is accomplished and they can say what ever they want in a text after that and sexy times are ahead. No…………. Most of the time nothing happens. Or it fades out to nothing. But in saying that when a girl gives a guy a phone number, there is potential. But something happens between the potential and sending a text.


Common mistakes in texting happen so commonly and are repeated over and over again. In this article the focus will be on 3 simple tips that will greatly increase the chances of having her respond which will greatly increase the chances of a phone number leading to a date.


1. Length of texts
Make sure the length of your texts matches the length of her texts. A few years ago this did not matter. Texts were usually short on a phone with a numeric keypad and a tiny screen showing one text at a time. And on these screen it’s hard to tell who’s texts were longer anyway. But in the resent day we have smartphones with giant screens where she can see the conversation.





If you send her huge texts where she sends back one liners, there is an imbalance of power. And an impression of desperation will be apparent. So always match the length of your messages with hers. This will encourage her to write a little more in her next text. This is a very common mistake that will make you look needy. And that is very unattractive to a woman.


2. Smiley faces, kisses, and lol
Girls hate this from guys they just met. Girls send these to other girls, and guys send these to girlfriends so why put her into those categories? If you put her into the girlfriend category you are giving her way too much value and will give away your power. If you talk to her like a friend, then you are in for another friend zoning. These can also come across as a nervous nice guy talk. And if you send her really stupid looking smiley faces, she will associate you with that stupid looking face.





Just don’t send these until you do have something going on with her.



3. Don’t give her too much value on first texts.
Don’t go telling her how it was AMAZING meeting her and how GREAT it was. For her it was probably just nice. Girls, especially hot girls get asked for their number a lot. And of the guys that she gives numbers to, you may have other guys to compete with. And don’t be one of the many in the chump basket.


Just say it was cool meeting you and then talk about you. Talk about something amazing you are doing now or later on and don’t invite her. Turn the tables this drives them nuts. For example, tell them you’re at a cool bar and describe it a little as they love descriptions. Then say it was nice chatting and you’ll call them later. She will wonder why she is not invited. This will raise your value and have her appreciate your contact. Most guys text a girl and say how she is the greatest thing in a long text and then go straight to inviting her out. Don’t!!!




There are a thousand aspects to cover on this topic. But these are the three most common mistakes. Have fun with it and do some trial and error. Happy texting.

A lot of guys are worried that they’re texting too soon. Don’t. Instead, think of it this way: Text her when you have the time to have an interaction with her. That might be the next morning after brunch, it might be the following Monday after work. The point is, make time for her when you have the time to make.

When you first text her, reference a high point in the interaction. This will remind her, on a gut emotional level, that you two had a good time together. There are few better ways to get her to text her back than to remind her that you two connected.

Flirt a little. Keep things light. Don’t be afraid to use emoticons, which let her know that you’re being playful and joking around. What you really want to do, however, is to bring the conversation back to a connection you’ve already made with an eye toward making plans. Talk to her about things you two share a passion for, then make plans to go do something together.

Hope this helps

.. I hate to say this.. but Yoda's (male) and Trinco (female) postings are kinda complete opposite...

Yoda said not to use emoticons, Trinco said to be light and use emoticons..
Yoda said to text about something nice but don't invite her, Trinco said.. make plans to go do something together...

As you can see boys and gals.. male are from Mars and Women are from Venus - now you guys can see why male are in such a focked up state when it comes to trying to keep a gal interested.!

I think emoticons are fine, as long as it's not too cutesy...I think over thinking how long your txts should be or playing up your plans is just game playing....Of course she wouldn't know that...but if I got a txt from someone I was interested in telling me he was having an awesome night and they went to a bit of trouble to send me a detailed txt about it and didn't think to suggest an invite....pfft....

I'd rather get the txt from the guy who makes an effort to make plans...not the one who txt me to tell me about his already fantastic plans that don't include me.

Bottom line...If you want to txt a girl...just fraking txt her:p

I must ask why do you get the working ladies number ...
is it because
  1. You feel that you made a connections
  2. You think you can see the lady cheaper away from the establishment.
  3. You can share it with your friend ...
  4. You think you can see the lady cheaper away from the establishment ..
  5. You can get extra hours for free out of her...........
  6. You think you can see the lady cheaper away from the establishment ..:):):):):):):p:p:p:p

Um Astro might pay to look past the avatars when making assumptions :)

I do tend to agree with Trinco's advice on this one over Yoda's tho
both have valid points tho

In answer to Ms Sue the reason I try to get their number mainly is because when they suddenly leave the establishment you can still contact them to see them again and sometimes they just like a friend to chat with too on a personal level not customer/client

Trinco is a guy?

Damn you avatar!! Damn you lying piece of binary false..thing.

As Desiree said, I'll not be impressed if someone txt me about their fun night without invite.. but then, Yoda is a known stud So I don't think one should dismiss what he says ...

For me, I'm an open straight forwards kinda guy, if I want someone there or something, I won't play games.. but I've been burn before when gals tell me I'll be perfect if I'm not that open...

Oh well..different gals..different strokes.

I disagree with Sue, if you click with someone you want to stay in touch and like sparky said the girls move around a lot. The prices the industry charge are a lot of entertainment $$$ in the mens budget. A phone call or sms extends the experience.
i suggest short sweet and cheeky sms, brighten up someones day type.

It does to me ..but each is to their own..
I've never been interested in seeing a girl outside their work but that's just me..I like exclusivity in my relationship... The perspective I have int earlier post was for a situation where you meet a girl in a bar or anywhere ...

I meant on the way they're treated not on your preferences

If Trinco was his avatar she would be very popular
I'm guessing he might be a fan of "That 70's Show"

I like the tips on texting from both Yoda and Trinco. I am much more of a people person and really worry about wording something in a text where the context may be misinterpreted, so I try to keep mine to the minimum because of that.

@ Sue
I usually get offered a mobile number from a lady when I have become a regular and she will let me contact her to find out her schedule or meet up for a coffee or beach etc.

I see most of the comments are directed at situations where a wl gives a number.

The context of the article also includes non wl

I find sending a message worded as though you were speaking to her is a good way to start. Whole words, not abbreviated. Re-read it a couple of times and check the grammar!
